Compare and Contrast

The movie, book, and the interviews are all very close with little, to no differences. The interview in the movie was almost the same as the real one. In fact, I'm not even sure if they didn't put the real one in the movie. One line from the movie was even verbatim, "...someday someone is gonna have to wipe my ass." It also has Mitch's work ethic down with him always doing six things at a time. The plots are both very similar in the book and the movie, and the movie helps me understand the book better by giving me a visual of what is going on in the book.
Although, I didn't think that the problems that Mitch and his wife were having at home should be so important in the movie because it wasn't in the book and it strays from the plot line. Other than that the movie has helped me so far.
